With scsi storage, which includes USB flash storage,
the device name frequently changes with rebooting.
For example, a swap drive alone can be /dev/sda but
if the system starts with a store connected by USB,
the swap drive can be /dev/sdb. Is there any way to
have the kernel use a name such as
/dev/fujitsu which it gets from the
scsi bus?
